the house changes with the seasons!
As any city dweller knows, you don't have a lot of square footage to
work with in urban hotspots. This design addresses this issue a stack of
three rectangular rooms that can either be
aligned flush against the façade of the home or rotated perpendicular
to the outer wall—creating weather-friendly options for both a winter
and summer living space.
The project consisted of four major
parts: the fixed volume of the structure, the void, fixed volume and the
mobile volume, respectively. When the turning boxes are closed, the
building captures sunlight throughout the space of the central void,
which also connects the two fixed volumes by suspended bridges.
The
house adapts to the functional needs of its users. The guest room, home
offices and breakfast rooms (turning rooms on the first and third
floors) can change the formality of their appearance according to their
residents needs!
